20080916240 | Flash Bounty Reaches $300

Our flash port bounty has recently reached $300 USD. One bounty contributor really wants to see this based on their contributions! I think most of us would like to see Flash on Haiku. Are there any interested developers?

	The problem with Flash is that it's closed source so the open source alternatives are constantly trying to play catchup. This makes the code a moving target as it's constantly updated. Regardless, I want to see some sort of Flash support on Haiku. Java will be covered (at least eventually) but the OpenJDK port.
